Individual Health Coverage vs. Group Health Coverage EVCO Insurance Blog By EVCO Insurance on 3/5/2010 With today’s rising health care premiums, it is wiser for anyone to be under a group plan instead of an individual plan if the situation allows.

Replacement of Lost or Stolen ID Cards EVCO Insurance Blog By EVCO Insurance on 3/1/2010 When you sign up for health insurance, a medical ID card is sent right away. These cards are important as they contain all the necessary information needed by the providers you go to.

You have to call your carrier and most often than not, you are on the phone for a long period of time, an hour at the most, just so you can get what you need. Of course, you also have to request for a replacement card. With EVCO at your service, you skip the hassle of calling and waiting in line to get to the next customer service rep over the phone. With only one call or even an email, we’re there to help you get your request done right away.
